So the Adaptor Plate… this is a problem. I’ve been asking around for quite some time to find a place. I found one online, but a trusted friend has told me not to deal with that company.
I’ve been referred to a place in Washington through SEVA (Seattle Electric Vehicle Association) and so I’ve got to check that out. I’ve also been referred to a place out of California who does this all the time. You’d think that is the logical choice, but they need a transmission to get the measurements and I’m in Vancouver, BC. It’s $200 to ship a transmission… That brings the cost for everything close to $2000 USD. More than I was hoping.
I then came across this thread: http://www.diyelectriccar.com/forums/showthread.php/want-build-adaptor-plate-myself-looking-52905.html How hard can it be? If I don’t find someone to do it for me soon… we may attempt this. I do need this done shortly though (as I work on the “looks” of the car) so that I’m not waiting on the motor come October when I need to start assembling electric parts.
